COMMENTS

Conjecture: also coefficient triangle of the denominators of the (n-th convergents to) the Continued Fraction w/(1+w/(2+w/3+w/.. This C.F. converges to 0.697774657964.. = BesselI[1,2]/BesselI[0,2] for w=1. [From Wouter Meeussen (wouter.meeussen(AT)pandora.be), Aug 08 2010]

FORMULA

Given a flush left array, (r, c) of row (n+1) = (n+1)*(r-1, c) + (r-2, c-1); (i.e. multiply each term of n-th row by (n+1) and add the first term on the NW diagonal; getting the terms in row n+1.

(n-m)!/m!*binomial(n-m,m) [From Wouter Meeussen (wouter.meeussen(AT)pandora.be), Aug 08 2010]

EXAMPLE

By rows, the triangle is:

0. 1

1. 1

2. 2 1

3. 6 4

4. 24 18 1

5. 120 96 9

6. 720 600 72 1

7. 5040 4320 600 16

...

E.g. to get row 7, multiply each term of row 6 by 7, then add the term NW of term in row 6: 5040 = (7)(720); 4320 = (7)(600) + 20; 600 = (7)(72) + 96; 16 = (7)(1) + 9. Thus row 7 = 5040 4320 600 16 with a sum of 9976 = a(7) of A001040.

The denominator of w/(1 + w/(2 + w/(3 + w/(4 + w/5)))) equals 120 + 96w + 9w^2. [From Wouter Meeussen (wouter.meeussen(AT)pandora.be), Aug 08 2010]
